Why don’t we just replace the worthless SLT with AI? The direction will be way more focused and with clear strategy. We will save tens of millions if not hundreds of millions when counting stock comp and bonuses.

Bonus
Anyone ever had their bonus be $0 due to not working the full 8 hours in office on connect weeks?
Hourly employee .. paid twice today?
I received two separate payments today. One appears to be my regular paycheck, and the other shows a gross amount of $500 with a net payment of $150.
Has anyone experienced something similar? Could this be a payroll error, a bonus, or some type of adjustment? I’m planning to contact payroll, but I was curious if anyone has seen this before.
Cengage - Sorry for those not at the top
Cengage continues to show its true colors and it just keeps getting worse... On May 26th an email went out to people leaders letting them know that employees that made a Transformative or Outstanding impact would receive an impact award (if they are not on the normal Incentive plan). This is typically a small bonus like 5%.
On June 2nd, HR emailed people leaders again saying our bad, that's not actually going to happen. This happening after many managers have already spoken to employees. and now Managers are having to break the news to their employees.
Now, for the people who are on the incentive plan with a 10% - 40% bonus, just need to get achieved (significant impact) for it to pay out. and it is still going to.
In other words, to the people that have a job profile not allowing them to be on the incentive plan but absolutely crushed it this year, I am sorry and unfortunately Cengage is giving you the middle finger and has no desire to walk back their walk back.
Today's Puspose Corner email puts lulz on high alert
The Truist Championship did one thing for sure; it took money from raises, bonuses, and promotions. That is it. The rest is speculative and ignores the terrible work the executive leadership has done since the merger that undermines all of the claims.
Does anyone have experience or knowledge of others who have retired in the current calelander year and still recieved thier bonus the following
Does anyone have experience or knowledge of others who have retired in the current calelander year and still recieved thier bonus the following year? Documentation says it's the process, but......?
What did the severance, shares, and bonus packages actually look like?
To everyone who served their last day on May 29th, thank you for everything you’ve contributed here..
As the community navigates this transition, many are trying to understand the baseline support the company provided. If you feel comfortable sharing, could you shed some light on the standard severance packages? Specifically:
Salary: Did the company stick to the standard 2 weeks of pay per year of service (up to a 6-month max), or did those with shorter tenures (like 3 years or less) get a flat baseline?
Shares: Did they pay out any shares based on their current vesting value, or did all share vesting completely cut off on May 29th?
Bonus & Benefits: Were annual bonuses pro-rated based on the time you worked this year, and are they subsidizing health insurance (COBRA)?
Wishing you all the absolute best on your next chapters!
IBP adjusted so we can’t all reap the success?
Dell adjusted the FY27 company bonus plan to have a lower waiting on a revenue this year.
Dell knew that the revenue would be much higher this year when contracts were booked in fy26, sales were rewarded. Revenue follows cost/shipping (accounting).
Is this true?
Okay… yes all you directors and i10s may have shares LTI. But most of us i6-i8 have squat :(
Do we get any free banana bonus yet ?
Holly sh-t … 30% bonus bump for TSMC guys. What the f-c k you are doing here ?
Too jealous and really stupid still working at this shitTel

Leader only bonuses
So AMN gave it’s employees a measly 2k bonus at the company meeting and today called directors and above handing out a much healthier bonus to those groups. Classic AMN behavior.
So we fire lots of people, we use ai for everything, and I’m doing 3 times the work I did 2 years ago. Why is vz stock barely moving since..
….mid March. Seriously, Dan be like ‘AI efficiency” and ‘we must tighten our belt and layoff’ and we’re still sh---y. Pay me Danny boy. You made a sh-t deal with the unions but have always paid us. All that moolah you got saved should be coming back to us. Sh-t, even throw the union some type of bonus for bending over on a bad contract.
Also that voice changer stuff is racist as he-l.
Yearly raises and bonus
Who is eligible for a yearly bonus. Doesn’t seem very clear. I am getting the the feeling it’s only for upper management employees.
Waiting for potential severance or retirement
Is there any advantage to informing HR about retirement plans ahead of time? With the possibility of layoffs and severance packages at Bank, I’m unsure whether I should let HR know that I’m planning to retire in July. I would also be eligible for a half-year bonus since I have 10+ years. Could notifying HR about my retirement plans affect my chances of being included in a layoff or receiving severance?
Insult to injury
Employees with a meets expectations or higher on the year end scorecard were offered a retention bonus if they are still employed by December of this year. 1.5 % of your annual salary is hardly a reason to stay until December. What an out of touch and insulting incentive.
Bonus for non-US employees
Groundbreaking stuff! A CEO acknowledging that employees outside the US are also, in fact, employees. And framing the bonus as damage control for American democracy imploding? Absolutely riveting corporate theater!
Thank you, Dr. Goodnight!
Billions in share buybacks, hundred million in exes bonuses, and you are out of a job.
Thank you for your service :).
Achieving ROE targets
So that Bill Ackman can make 5 billion instead of 3 and so that do nothing fat cats can get their multi million bonuses.
Permian Retention Plan
Costs are on the rise and there is plenty of work in West Texas. What will
Devon do to retain their talent? News of Houston and OKC retention bonuses will only further ruin field morale.
No IPI Dollar Amount in Severance Letter?
Did anyone else affected by the Intuit layoffs who is IPI eligible get a severance letter that includes the number of weeks of severance and COBRA info, but no specific dollar amount of IPI listed? Some of my colleagues had dollar amounts included (which were of course lower amounts than they typically get), but my letter only generally referenced if you are eligible for IPI it will be paid out with your final paycheck. I think they are going to sc--w me out of my bonus?
Deloitte Audit Division Experiences Staff Reductions
Deloitte recently conducted layoffs within its audit division. These reductions affected employees, including senior managers. The layoffs occurred shortly before annual bonuses were scheduled. Affected individuals reported the process felt impersonal. One senior manager received severance and bonus payout.

Vice Presidents
Can we hire some more vice presidents? The more vice presidents we hire, the more Expand has to pay the worker bees to put up with the extra BS. Then we can get a raise! In reality, we challenge the vice presidents to justify their salaries and bonuses to the stock holders. We know they are worthless from the inside view of the company. Oh, they will claim the worker bees' accomplishments, but we know who really gets the work done around here. And we don't have skeletons on our closet.
How to get a higher WHAT and HOW score?
It seems that now our bonuses are also calculated with the WHAT and HOW scores. My manager created easy goals for a couple of colleagues who are her friends and asked them to copy paste them in the system. But with me, we used AI and my my goals are almost impossible to achieve. I don't think I shall get a good WHAT or HOW score even if I try too hard. And because the success of my goals is dependent on others, I am finding it hard to show that I am working harder than the colleagues with easier goals. Long story short, it feels like the new performance management makes it super easy for managers to give more bonus and salary appraisal to their friends. Is moving into another team my only choice? Are they really planning layoffs by giving bad scores? Some colleague was saying that a PiP means you don't even get severance and they can lay you off anytime. I can't ask my manager yet because she is very politik and cares more about networking than about our work. If the culture is only going to get worse I may even look for a job outside but there aren't many opportunities right now. I am based near Heidelberg in case that matters.
Are we eligible for annual bonus payouts?
I wad impacted today after being at the company for 5 years. The one question I forgot to ask was around our annual bonus payout. Since it appears everyone will still be on payroll and “employees” until 60 days from now (July 18th), will we be receiving out ICP bonus payout?
During 2024 layoffs, did affected receive annual bonus ?
Might be a dum--ss question but we typically get it in August wonder if they will prorate if tomorrow is in fact the day .
Charlie Wants Another Bonus
Can the bank afford another bonus for Charlie? Can Charlie survive without it?
Upcoming layoff of payroll on July 1st - 10% company wide cuts.
If you are laid off how is severance determined and are you offered a pro rated bonus?
Another Form of Quiet Layoffs
Cutting bonuses drastically by raising metrics incrementally every year, until they're just out of reach. Q1 2026 quarterly bonus dropped $1500 for me compared to other quarters and my performance increased this year. The base isn't the best, so you have to rely on bonuses to make up for it. All that makes people want to do it put in less effort, which I'll be doing.
Pioneer Flight
People are leaving. Retention bonuses timeline expired, so many are leaving.
To the hard working associates from home office.. give us more !
Don't you love how home office messes with our bonus ? No longer going above and beyond. Doing what I can and at a different pace from here on out.
The Trend is Not Your Friend
Has anyone else noticed that for the past 2 years we have been making LESS money.
It appears that our we-ponized ranking system is definitely paying dividends.
A few more people in the PIP aught to do it. Let’s go ahead and run off our most experienced personnel and outsource overseas.
To the board…..keep up the great work. Y’all all deserve bonuses.

Shares bonuses for Employees
With the yearly bul$hit that they can't afford pay raises why don't they give some money to employees via shares. They can do it for Execs across the globe so it shouldn't be an issue.

Pro-rated FY26 bonuses, placement services, and one year of Cisco U access...
What a way to contain the reputational damage. Good luck with that.
Bonuses and raises
Is it just me, or are bonuses and raises well below market?
Bonus
Anyone hear anything on when we will get the retention bonus now that the sale is through?
What's the worst thing your boss has done?
I'll start. Mine took credit for a project I led, got a bonus for it, and then blamed me when something went wrong six months later. I hate that man.
Q1 Quarterly Bonus in May 22
So we’re actually getting the quarterly bonus. Underperformed on Data Losses, but outperformed on Mobile Adds, so it basically evened out.
Pioneer Mass Resignation in Permian
Now that Pioneer employees have received the last of their retention bonus money the resignations are rolling in.

Has anyone left Fiserv and had to pay back the cash bonus because tenure hasn't been met? How does that work?
